Camber and Toe eccentric woes
I need an alignment...
Rear eccentric toe bolts just spin. How does one remove it? I want to replace the camber and toe eccentrics because I can't adjust anything. Heat or penetrating oil? Or do I savagely go at it? Also, the toe eccentric goes thru the spring plate bushing? I assume it's commonplace to change the plate bushing at this point? I'm not the brightest bulb when it comes to suspension stuff Thx!

If the nuts are frozen, even after heat, you will have to cut them off. With new or good used hardware, you should be back in business assuming the oval slots in the arm and plate aren't deformed. If 77 or later plates you have the ride height adjustment eccentrics at the forward end of the plate as well to deal with. Bob

Cycling heat and penetrating oil can do wonders. An impact wrench doesn't hurt either, if possible.
